Kernel: 5.9.13-arch1-1-g14
Problem: acpi_call-dkms added with dkms, modprobed, doesn’t actually load, things that depend on it fail.
I had this working before, and I think now the new kernel or new kernel modules broke acpi_call. I only know a little about how modules work, so this might be a Newbie Corner question. I need acpi_call for tlp. It worked fine before. Everything I’m reading online isn’t working.
systemctl status acpi_call
Unit acpi_call.service could not be found.
tlp commands say
Error: battery charge thresholds not available.
which I tracked down to acpi_call. When I did modprobe acpi_call, it wasn’t found. I installed acpi_call-dkms, did the dkms install command, did modprobe, everything seemed fine. Rebooted, and nothing has changed.
